Homework
This weeks homework will be for the children to carry out research to use for their second Japan leaflet - based on their chosen place/ area of interest / landmark in Japan. Each child has a different place to research.
The children are more than willing to make notes in HWB using their online word app in Office 365. They need to remember they save the name of their document so it can be identified in their One Drive. They do not need to share these with me. We kept the learning logs in school after reviewing the TU x TU homework we will be going over the methods a little bit more before returning the books home.
I would also like the children to make notes in their Learning Logs to use towards their leaflet. In particular, they still need to think of formulating questions and answers for their leaflets and try to plan how they can use semi-colons or colons in the leaflet as we have been looking at these in class. If anybody would like to plan the layout of their leaflet either in their books or digitally using an app on HWB then they are more than welcome to do so - J2E would be a good app to use as it allow you to add text boxes and pictures anywhere on a page.

Diwrnod Shwmae
Dear Parents,
Tuesday 15th October is Shwmae Day in Wales. It's a perfect opportunity to use and develop our Welsh language skills and to learn more about the Welsh culture.
Last year was great fun and we will once again celebrate this occasion as a school.
Pupils will take part in Welsh themed activities in their classes throughout the day. It is also Health and Well-being Week, so afternoon activities will focus on this and will involve an aspect of Welsh.
There will be non-school uniform on this day but we ask that pupils wear something that has the welsh colours - red, green or white.
Here are some vocabulary that you can use at home to join in our celebrations with us.
Bore da - good morning
Prynhawn da - good afternoon
Sut wyt ti? - how are you?
Diolch - thank you
Os gwelwch yn dda - please
Cinio - dinners
Brechdannu - sandwiches
Ysgol - school
Nos da - good night
Diolch,
Miss Parfitt
